(If possible, please preserve the 650976-forwarded address in any replies.)

We've had a report of a build failure on GNU/Hurd when a long write is
interrupted by a signal (since Emacs hasn't set SA_RESTART).

One proposed solution is to add

  #define POSIX_SIGNALS 1

to src/s/gnu.h.

See: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=650976

Please let me know if you need further information.

Thanks
